Our Name

Our company’s name refers to our mission and commitment of connecting Middle Eastern investors and capital to global opportunities based on emerging new economic corridors.

We are launching in China first as it has the most mature ecosystem in Asia, then we will scale up and expand as new economic corridors emerge between MENA and Asia.

For GCC Investors

At GCCVest, it is our mission to be the most trusted private equity partner and advisor in the Middle East for cross-border investments in China and partnerships with high-growth Chinese companies.

For Chinese Companies

We also aim to become the first choice for technology entrepreneurs, founders, fund managers, and executives in China seeking capital access, growth support, and a partner for growth and expansion in the MENA region.

Integrity

As a 100% employee-owned company, everything we do, we do with integrity, honesty, transparency, and respect for each other and for all our stakeholders.

Teamwork

We operate with a core belief that a team of talented people from unique backgrounds, with shared values, and the right incentives, will achieve superior outcomes. We work collaboratively within the team and with businesses to foster close relationships.

Attitude

Our team consists of industry veterans and young problem solvers with “roll-up-your-sleeves” attitudes. We honor our partners and clients’ trust in our capabilities with our hands-on, team-based approach to providing them with customized investment and advisory services.

Excellence

We aspire to be the best at all that we do, and we seek for continuous improvement. We foster a collegiate environment in which we share common goals and commit to excellence.

Passion

We founded GCCVest on the belief that we are whitespace pioneers in a space that has not been served well. We are a team that possess infectious energy, strong ambition, and relentless desire to drive change and to support entrepreneurs in achieving success.

Humility

We pursue the virtue of intellectual humility in all that we do, which drive us to think more critically and to continuously improve our decision-making. We are confident in what we do, yet we are actively curious and seeking ways to become even better.

The 4 services across our investment and advisory platforms that we provide to connect GCC investors with Chinese companies:

Growth & capital advisory

To provide differentiated and direct GCC capital access to Chinese companies with ambition and strategic fit to expand in GCC.

Our local team will also provide on the ground value creation support, including network access, knowledge, operations advice to accelerate the companies’ growth in GCC.

SINO-MENA partnerships

To connect high growth companies in China with GCC investors (e.g. corporate venture capital partners) who are interested in partnership opportunities and / or potential investments to accelerate the Chinese companies’ growth and expansion in the GCC region.

Investment platform

A first-of-its-kind SINO-MENA hybrid investment vehicle that combines the benefits of diversification and risk reduction of a Fund of Funds (FoF) and the high potential return of a VC/Growth model.

The investment fund allows GCC investors to gain access and invest in Chinese disruptive innovations, while introducing disruptive technologies and innovative business models to the fast-growing GCC markets, thus creating value for both sides.
